| Obverse description | The obverse features a highly polished proof field displaying the official emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games — a stylized figure in the form of a traditional Chinese seal script character — at center, with the inscription 'Beijing 2008' and the five interlocked Olympic rings below. The central motif is framed by an elaborate decorative border rendered in traditional Chinese auspicious cloud and dragon-scroll designs, evoking the aesthetic of classical Chinese architectural ornamentation. The legend '中华人民共和国' (People's Republic of China) arcs along the upper rim in Chinese characters, while the date '2008' appears in the lower exergue. |
